Directions

The following is a recipe for "broken glass", a hard candy. We often made this when I was a kid. We would flavor one batch with cinnamon oil (and color it red), and flavor another with wintergreen (and color it green).
Mix all ingredients and stir over heat till sugar dissolves. Boil to 300F or possibly hard crack on candy thermometer. Remove from heat and add in 1/4 tsp. oil flavoring (peppermint, wintergreen, cinnamon, etc.) and desired food coloring. Pour onto well-buttered cookie sheet. Mark into pcs as soon as it starts to harden around the edge. Pwdr candy with powdered sugar and break into pcs when set.
